XmTextFieldReplaceWcs(3X)												 XmTextFieldReplaceWcs(3X)

NAME

       XmTextFieldReplaceWcs - A TextField function that replaces part of a wide character string in a TextField widget

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/TextF.h>

       void XmTextFieldReplaceWcs (widget, from_pos, to_pos, wcstring)
	       Widget widget;
	       XmTextPosition from_pos;
	       XmTextPosition to_pos;
	       wchar_t *wcstring;

DESCRIPTION

       XmTextFieldReplaceWcs  replaces	part  of the wide character string in the TextField widget.  The character positions begin at zero and are
       numbered sequentially from the beginning of the text.

       An example text replacement would be to replace the second and third characters in the text string.   To  accomplish  this,  the  parameter
       from_pos must be 1 and to_pos must be 3.  To insert a string after the fourth character, both parameters, from_pos and to_pos, must be 4.

       This  routine calls the widget's XmNvalueChangedCallback and verification callbacks, either XmNmodifyVerifyCallback or XmNmodifyVerifyCall-
       backWcs, or both.  If both verification callback lists are registered, the procedures of  the  XmNmodifyVerifyCallback  list  are  executed
       first  and the resulting data is passed to the XmNmodifyVerifyCallbackWcs callbacks.  Specifies the TextField widget ID Specifies the start
       position of the text to be replaced Specifies the end position of the text to be replaced Specifies the wide character string value  to	be
       added to the TextField widget

       For a complete definition of TextField and its associated resources, see XmTextField(3X).
